The Holy Spirit's Work Acts 4 31- 5: 11





Read the passage: Acts 4


v.31 1. The empowerment of the church to do its mission.
(And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy ghost,)


v.31 2. Life to the messenger bearing the word of truth. 
(and they spake the word of God with boldness.)

v.32 3. The conscience of an unselfish life serving Christ.
(And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any of them that aught of the things which he possess was his own; but they had all things common.)


v.33 4. The empowerment of the message of the word of God borne by the messenger. 
(And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus:)
see also 5: 32 (And we are his witnesses of these things; and so is also the Holy Ghost, whom God hath given to them that obey Him.)


v.33 5. The enduring of grace.
(of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all.)


v.34- 6. The record revealing Christ as absolute in His sufficiency.
37   (Neither was there any among them that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold, And laid them down at the apostles; feet: and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need.) ...


5:3, 7. The enforcer of truth.
11 (But Peter said, Ananias, why hath satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost,...)(And great fear came upon all the church, and upon as many as heard these things.)
